Dear MGA Members,

Against the backdrop of a gas market transitioning toward market liberalisation, Malaysian GasAssociation (MGA) continued to play its role effectively as the lead advocate for the Malaysiangas industry, promoting greater utilisation of natural gas and smooth market transition.

2019 has been another impactful year for MGA with multiple engagements and activitiesorganised to uphold the three pillars of MGA’s mission; namely Advocacy, Communication andEducation.

On the advocacy front, MGA continue to engage with policymakers, regulators and other keystakeholders to promote natural gas as the clean fuel of choice, a fuel that will play a pivotalrole in transitioning Malaysia towards future carbon neutral country. A study on Malaysia’sFuture Energy Landscape projected natural gas to be the single largest fuel in the primaryenergy demand by 2050.

To ensure that Malaysia stays in its path towards sustainability of the Malaysian gas industry,MGA since early 2019 has been calling for the development of a Natural Gas Roadmap. I ampleased to report that, at the time of writing this article, Malaysia’s Economic Planning Unit(EPU) is leading the drafting the Natural Gas Roadmap that will be incorporated into the 12thMalaysia Plan for the period 2021-2025..

Other market progress seen in 2019 was the first third party LNG cargo unloaded in PeninsularMalaysia since the third party access (TPA) mechanism took effect. Several MGA members wereinvolved in realising this milestone including as importer and infrastructure operator.

Also on the advocacy front, MGA is proud to have organised two inaugural platforms fordiscourse, namely Malaysian Gas Symposium (MyGAS) and Forum on Cogeneration (FoC), bothof which were officiated by cabinet Ministers.

There were many more engagements and activities that MGA organised in 2019, details ofwhich can be found inside this annual report.

On the international front, MGA continued to fully utilise its membership with the InternationalGas Union (IGU). By virtue of being a member of the Executive Committee of IGU, MGA wasdeeply involved in charting the future path of IGU, including being a key member of theTransition Team that strategized and planned the establishment of permanent secretariat witha full time Secretary General to drive the Association.

I personally continued to play a leading role in IGU as its Regional Coordinator for South &Southeast Asia, a region that is home to nearly a third of the global population. As RegionalCoordinator, I represented IGU in this region to promote gas by speaking at conferences andmaintaining relationship with IGU members.

Before I end, I am taking this opportunity to thank MGA Council, Working Committees,Taskforce, Secretariat and all MGA members for your dedication and commitment. Ourcollective teamwork raised MGA’s profile further as a true lead advocate for the Malaysian gasindustry.

I would also like to thank all our stakeholders, especially policymakers and regulators, for theirsupport and look forward to further future engagements.

Thank you.

Yours sincerely,Hazli Sham KassimPresidentMalaysian Gas Association

MGA’s Energy Efficiency Program (EEP 2019) was held from August to

October 2019 with series of exciting workshops to advocate gas and

energy efficiency in a fun and innovative way amongst Form 2 students.

Supported by the Ministry of Education, EEP 2019 leveraged on Micro:Bit

as the learning tool to enhance interest in STEM (Science, Technology,

Engineering & Mathematic) and stimulate KBAT (higher order thinking

skills). Using Micro:Bit, students were encouraged to innovate smart and

energy efficient solutions to address problems at schools.

216 students representing 6 schools from 3 states namely Pahang,

Selangor and WP Putrajaya took part in this year’s EEP program. During

the Final Showcase held on 2nd October, SMK Dato’ Ahmad Razali,

Ampang, Selangor emerged as the Champion with a project called ‘I-chop’

As the secretariat of MyWiE – Malaysian Women in Energy, MGA played an active role topropagate and advocate diversity and inclusion agenda within the Energy communities.Formed in January 2018, MYWiE aims to increase participation and ensuring equitablecareer development for women in the energy sector. MyWiE also offers platform forcross industry networking and sharing with like-minded peers, diversity leaders andchange makers on ideas, perspectives, and approaches related to diversity and inclusion.

In 2019, with the guidance of MyWiE Advisory Panel and Workstream Leaders, MGA led the implementation of several programs to progress the women agenda further. Below are some of the key activities that took place :

One of MyWiE’s (Malaysia Women In Energy) key deliverables in 2018 was

the best practice recommendation entitled “STRATEGIES & BEST PRACTICES

FOR ATTRACTING, DEVELOPING & RETAINING WOMEN IN STEM & ENERGY

SECTORS IN MALAYSIA’’. The report was shared with YB Yeo Bee Yin,

Minister of Energy, Science, Technology, Environment & Climate Change

(MESTECC), and handed over to CEO/Leaders of Energy companies at the

Forum on Women In Energy (FoWiE2018) on 6 Dec 2018. The content was

also deliberated at length through presentation and panel discussions at the

same event. The best practice proposal discusses and provides

recommendation on two main focus areas as follows :-

1. How to attract and Increase female participation in technical lines of

Energy and related STEM sector – by Work Stream 1

2. How to ensure that women have equal career opportunities as men and

that the workplace is inclusive and conducive for all – by Work Stream 2

Work Stream 3 on the other hand focuses on enhancing the visibility of

women leaders and creating platform that supports women leaders and

others in the pipeline. A series of survey/interview involving top women

leaders in the energy industry were conducted to deep dive into several

aspects namely women’s ambitions in senior leadership positions, challenges

faced by them, and the supports that are already in place / needed to allow

them to continue playing their role effectively while enhancing their

professional ambitions. The outcome of the survey will contribute towards

best practice recommendation /policy proposal that Work Stream 3

intends to deliver.
